Roll-over plow for Farmall M

Anonymous-0 · Jun 26, 2009

Hello. I just picked up a two-bottom pull type Roll-over plow for my Farmall M tractor. Hope that someone out there can help me out as to the different models that were Mfg'd. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. THANKS

I am not an expert on these plows,and I am not sure what you mean by a roll over plow. If you are talking about a rope trip plow that works with a mechanism in the big wheel I may be able to talk to you about it as I have one.ED

Think the call the plow I got a "Tumble Bug" plow. Looks like it flips over and it is pull type and rope trip

You mean a "tumble plow". M wouldn't handle a spinner.

Stevie: Model 39 also known in some parts as a Tumble Bug. I've seen two of them in operation and being pulled by Farmall H's. I think there was only ever the one model.

Mornin',

Just fer reference. First picture is a Tumble Bug, which is an earth moving implement. Second picture is a Tumble Plow.

Two entirely different machines.

Allan: I realize that, however here in eastern Canada, and I've seen the same in New England, folks call the plow a Tumble Bug.

I might point out, I had never seen that earth moving device you folks call a Tumble Bug until I came to YT. We had earth moving devices here in the east, quite different from the Tumble Bug going back to before I can remember.

Like me, you probably started school in a one room school, hardly knew anyone in the next district. Who would ever thought we'd be discussing every day with folks around the world.

There is another thread going right now about quack diggers, term coming out of WI. Lowell A who lives in WI, born and raised in IA, said when he first moved to WI, he couldn't imagine what a quack digger was. My thoughts are spring tooth harrow and Lowell confirmed this and that he knew it as a spring tooth harrow, growing up in IA. What made me think spring tooth harrow is here in the east couch grass is often refered to as quack grass. Before the days of chemicals, spring tooth harrow was one of the better ways for getting rid of couch grass, thus I'm thinking quack digger was well named.
